New Urban Arts

This should be basically the first official post and with it why not bring basically the birthplace or realization of my dream. When in the 11th grade I joined New Urban Arts' poetry group and gained skill in spoken word poetry. This helped tremendously with writing my music and generating the style I have today.

Enough about me though...New Urban Arts is a wonderful place for all Providence Youth, not just the misunderstood ones lol, to express creative talents, dreams and just have a home away from home..a getaway..maybe a perfect place to fashion a dream. 

At this "facility/workshop/studio/hangout" teens and mentors work on photography, drawing, painting, poetry and fashion designing. Above are some pictures of some artwork and below a link to the New Urban Arts website. I definitely want to give a shout out to the people who created New Urban Arts and to my poetry group (Richard, Phil, Acacia, Kendell, many others whos names I didn't remember.)
